#1 The guys at Electric Boat should send Vlad a fruit basket in thanks of doing all of their marketing for the next twenty years.

#4 So where did all the "new guys" go? The Russian and Ukrainian trolls who were as thick as ticks on a stray dog here on Rantburg just two months ago? I kind of miss their comments on stories like this one.

#9 "So where did all the "new guys" go?"

Beardfuck was my crush.

There seems to be a correlation btwn Elon buying Twitter and the drop.

I dont want to mix up correlation with causation, but NAFO was a metric. When they arrived on the scene mid summer/late spring - they reminded me immediately of D.Brock-Hillary's Correct The Record folks. Smelled of Gaslight. Their presence and reach only expanded... Grew more annoying by the day until Elon's purchase of the platform and following release of the Twitter Files.

My conclusion - too much sunlight and they backed off to dial down the gaslighting.

#11 Could their regular gig have been tormenting folks that got banned? Was this just a side job to pay the bills until their regular gig ended troll layoffs?
